vain_a it_o be_v to_o talk_v of_o providence_n until_o we_o see_v what_o be_v the_o token_n of_o providence_n wherefore_o before_o i_o come_v to_o handle_v how_o particular_a man_n may_v lose_v their_o privilege_n i_o shall_v a_o little_a discourse_n of_o the_o token_n of_o providence_n whereby_o a_o nation_n may_v apprehend_v deliverance_n and_o see_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o certain_a enough_o to_o engage_v a_o christian_a in_o what_o may_v be_v call_v opposition_n to_o power_n for_o to_o a_o heathen_a to_o have_v power_n to_o try_v the_o event_n for_o liberty_n be_v enough_o to_o hold_v his_o conscience_n in_o suspense_n till_o the_o issue_n to_o he_o manifest_v the_o present_a will_n of_o providence_n but_o to_o morrow_n he_o will_v attemp_n again_o but_o the_o christian_n ought_v to_o obey_v for_o conscience_n sake_n the_o power_n know_v there_o be_v none_o but_o of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o set_v up_o and_o pluck_v down_o who_o and_o as_o he_o please_v therefore_o christian_n submit_v to_o usurper_n in_o act_n just_a and_o lawful_a yea_o to_o tyrant_n and_o be_v enthrall_v they_o seek_v liberty_n just_o that_o be_v first_o when_o god_n shall_v upon_o their_o petition_n stir_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o prince_n to_o afford_v they_o their_o just_a due_n next_o they_o seek_v help_v of_o their_o conservator_n of_o privilege_n if_o any_o be_v but_o these_o be_v natural_a and_o just_a to_o all_o man_n again_o these_o seek_v not_o out_o evasion_n for_o rebellion_n such_o as_o some_o call_v providence_n therefore_o let_v we_o see_v further_a what_o we_o can_v find_v in_o reason_n let_v a_o prince_n come_v to_o the_o height_n of_o private_a wickedness_n be_v this_o a_o sure_a sign_n god_n have_v reject_v he_o no_o sure_a let_v he_o err_v in_o many_o act_n of_o justice_n to_o particular_a person_n yet_o this_o will_v not_o do_v simple_o consider_v that_o be_v if_o it_o stretch_v not_o to_o a_o universal_a end_n now_o some_o will_v bound_v this_o to_o the_o life_n only_o that_o be_v if_o the_o king_n or_o any_o supreme_a do_v not_o adventure_v upon_o the_o breach_n of_o law_n for_o safety_n of_o life_n there_o ought_v to_o be_v no_o opposition_n other_o make_v liberty_n other_o call_z good_n privilege_n but_o all_o agree_v that_o when_o he_o hold_v none_o of_o these_o he_o lose_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o prince_n and_o be_v a_o enemy_n a_o lycaon_n a_o wolf_n and_o with_o lycaon_n or_o nabuchadnezzar_n to_o be_v drive_v into_o the_o wilderness_n till_o they_o know_v the_o most_o high_a reign_v over_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o give_v they_o to_o who_o he_o please_v and_o that_o no_o tribe_n family_n lineage_n or_o other_o relation_n can_v engage_v a_o duty_n but_o he_o will_v incline_v all_o heart_n as_o he_o do_v in_o several_a case_n among_o his_o own_o people_n some_o quaere_fw-la this_o yet_o if_o it_o be_v so_o and_o sure_o god_n may_v do_v it_o for_o judgement_n but_o o_o king_n prince_n and_o all_o supream_n know_v while_o there_o be_v a_o body_n join_v to_o a_o soul_n your_o foul_a exorbitance_n will_v not_o be_v continual_o brook_v but_o you_o have_v lead_v the_o people_n into_o sin_n with_o you_o god_n will_v either_o punish_v you_o together_o or_o one_o by_o another_o therefore_o look_v not_o whole_o to_o the_o ingage_a the_o conscience_n of_o your_o people_n while_o you_o have_v no_o bound_n yet_o this_o be_v certain_a providence_n be_v allowable_a in_o difficult_a case_n and_o doubful_a if_o we_o be_v in_o bivio_fw-la in_o a_o straight_a at_o a_o loss_n and_o reason_n and_o religion_n both_o seem_v silent_a or_o speak_v not_o out_o plain_a enough_o providence_n follow_v just_a mean_n be_v a_o warrant_v sign_n of_o approbation_n of_o the_o righteous_a god_n but_o in_o thing_n evident_o against_o the_o light_n of_o religion_n settle_a law_n and_o good_a reason_n providence_n i_o say_v only_o so_o and_o most_o man_n expect_v no_o further_o assure_v not_o at_o

that_o for_o any_o nation_n to_o make_v a_o other_o its_o pattern_n mere_o from_o similitude_n be_v no_o way_n warrantable_a but_o their_o several_a condition_n in_o all_o regard_n not_o only_o of_o

the_o slippery_a bank_n of_o providence_n these_o general_a head_n pass_v which_o will_v to_o some_o clear_a all_o the_o rest_n yet_o to_o all_o man_n of_o all_o capacity_n to_o which_o general_a sort_n it_o be_v most_o fit_a for_o i_o to_o speak_v to_o i_o intend_v this_o treatise_n we_o come_v now_o to_o see_v how_o particular_a man_n in_o their_o own_o free_a nation_n may_v become_v absolute_o bind_v or_o more_o or_o less_o now_o to_o this_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o as_o nation_n may_v acquire_v power_n over_o nation_n so_o man_n over_o man_n yet_o the_o generalty_n of_o nation_n christian_n have_v avoid_v slavery_n so_o call_v of_o christian_n but_o why_o they_o shall_v do_v it_o to_o other_o be_v not_o apparent_a except_o only_o in_o the_o disuse_n and_o that_o disuse_n come_v from_o the_o evil_n of_o servant_n multiply_v to_o danger_n as_o shall_v be_v make_v apparent_a afterward_o but_o now_o as_o some_o offence_n become_v dangerous_a to_o life_n some_o to_o liberty_n some_o to_o good_n and_o some_o to_o honour_n some_o for_o a_o time_n some_o for_o ever_o as_o the_o law_n be_v so_o be_v privilege_n of_o man_n lose_v or_o regain_v and_o that_o just_o as_o the_o roman_a mutineer_n some_o banish_v into_o sicilia_n and_o never_o suffer_v to_o return_v some_o but_o for_o seven_o year_n some_o until_o release_v by_o the_o senate_n as_o they_o be_v guilty_a in_o degree_n just_a as_o now_o they_o be_v by_o act_n make_v uncapable_a of_o office_n for_o one_o two_o or_o more_o year_n or_o for_o ever_o at_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n and_o sure_o such_o penalty_n will_v if_o prudent_o improve_v prove_v the_o great_a incentives_n to_o trust_v and_o politic_a virtue_n now_o as_o particular_a man_n be_v indulge_v so_o be_v nation_n and_o by_o faithfulness_n or_o necessity_n be_v incorporate_v into_o free_a society_n as_o wales_n be_v with_o we_o by_o which_o you_o have_v the_o way_n of_o regain_n freedom_n make_v plain_a the_o

of_o subjection_n whether_o subjection_n and_o obedience_n be_v due_a to_o the_o person_n or_o to_o the_o power_n whether_o it_o be_v local_a or_o universal_a and_o how_o conscience_n bind_v by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v before_o it_o plain_o appear_v that_o the_o law_n do_v and_o must_v distinguish_v betwixt_o the_o office_n and_o person_n of_o a_o monarch_n king_n etc._n etc._n and_o all_o other_o supream_n upon_o the_o like_a ground_n by_o attribute_v to_o they_o property_n incompatible_a or_o no_o way_n agree_v with_o the_o person_n not_o only_a ubiquity_n and_o immortality_n but_o also_o infallibility_n in_o their_o sphere_n that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v able_a to_o do_v wrong_n while_o observe_v their_o rule_n this_o may_v be_v enough_o ro_o some_o man_n if_o interest_n have_v not_o make_v we_o wise_a to_o destruction_n therefore_o to_o the_o opposer_n we_o may_v seem_v to_o look_v back_o a_o little_a by_o resolve_v conscience_n more_o clear_o that_o the_o interest_n of_o

seek_v to_o tie_v the_o subject_a to_o blind_a obedience_n as_o well_o in_o the_o universality_n as_o particular_a person_n without_o hesitation_n simple_o because_o command_v be_v not_o hold_v forth_o so_o much_o to_o assure_v the_o quiet_a of_o the_o people_n as_o to_o exalt_v the_o absolute_a power_n of_o prince_n to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o thraldom_n of_o nation_n and_o as_o before_o either_o power_n or_o consent_n give_v this_o power_n the_o same_o respective_o may_v take_v it_o away_o except_o it_o be_v a_o special_a ordinance_n of_o god_n which_o few_o if_o any_o do_v
